Frequent Skier Card

January 5th, 2010 by Bea

In the past three days Loon Mountain in Lincoln, New Hampshire, has received over eighteen inches of fresh snow! Over eighteen! Add that to a base depth between 18-30 inches, and you have got some amazing snow conditions!

With forty-five new trails open, 274 acres open, 21 miles open, 3 parks open, and the weather being not too cold and windy– the conditions are looking good for one of New Hampshire’s biggest resorts.

I have a college pass. At a low $329 for unlimited skiing at Loon, Sunday River, and Sugarloaf, this is probably the best deal you could ever get at mountains like these but not everyone is fortunate enough to be in college. If you are not someone who is looking for an unlimited ski pass because they do get a little pricey, one way to save a lot of money is to invest in a Frequent Skier Pass. You can get them at any time, and they are definitely worth the cost of one. All you have to do is go skiing twice, and you already have made back your money! At around $90, this pass is valid for one free ski or snowboard pass. After that, it becomes a discount card.

What happens is on weekends you can receive a lift ticket for $15 off by presenting a card and a valid form of identification. During the weekdays you can get $25 off. So, just by going skiing on one weekend day and one weekday day, you have made your money back! This, of course, is assuming that the lift ticket you buy is around $75–which it probably will be.

The frequent skier card is perfect for someone who knows that they will go skiing or snowboarding a handful of times. However, if you are a college student like I am, buying that college pass is the best decision you ever could make!
